Speaker 1: heat wave is taking aim at nearly twenty million people

4
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 1: across the Southwest. High temperatures are soaring as much as

00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,239
Speaker 1: thirty five degrees above average for this time of year

6
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,119
Speaker 1: from California to the Great Plains. The heat wave is

7
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: caused by a ridge of high pressure, heavy air that's

8
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 1: sinking toward the ground. The hottest days are expected to

9
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 1: be Thursday through Saturday, but the heat could remain after

10
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,920

Speaker 1: will help bring the situation in the Strait of horm

15
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: Moves under control. The narrow waterway normally sees about a

16
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: fifth of the world's oil supply passed through it, but

17
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,960

20
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,240

21
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:01,440

24
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,399
Speaker 1: Mark Wayne Mullen of Oklahoma didn't face a lot of

25
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 1: pushback before the Senate Homeland Security Committee, except for one

26
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: exchange with fellow Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky.

27
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 2: You told the media that I was a freaking snake

28
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 2: and that you completely understood why I had been assaulted.

29
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,039
Speaker 2: I gotta understand why your neighbor by the neighbor did

30
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:27,560

Speaker 1: Mullen didn't apologize for calling Paul a snake in the grass,

32
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: but pledged to work with him if confirmed and earned

33
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: his trust. Mullen is widely expected to get the support

34
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: of a simple majority in the full Senate vote. The

35
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:43,040
